GODI CHRISTADELPHIAN LECTURE, BIBLE HALL Madras st., near Tuam st. Sunday, 7 p.m., God willing. Subject: WHAT IS CHRIST COMING FOR? How the comforting message of Bethlehem comes to us over the misty halls of centuries to a world in the greatest distress of all time. "PEACE ON EARTH. GOODWILL TOWARD MEN." To many, these words today seem a mockery, and well they might from a human point of view. But the assurance is not human, it is Divine, and therein lies the only hope for mankind. “I WILL COME AGAIN,” said the Prince of Peace, for “God hath appointed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness by that man (Jesus), whom he hath ordained.” Acts 17:31. "The Lord shall be King over all the earth.” Zech 14:9., “O Let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for thou shalt judge the people, righteously and govern the nations.” Psa. 9:8.9.' “As truly as I live,” saith the Lord. “All the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord.” The world government shall be upon His shoulders: and His name shall be called Wonderful, Councillor, The mighty God. The Everlasting Father. The Prince of Peace.” Num 14.21Isaiah 9:6.7. In Revelations, chapter 22. John saw in vision the redeemed reigning with Christ over the nations. “They lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.” For He must reign till He hath put all enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. Then He shall deliver up the Kingdom to God even the Father. Ist Cor. 15.24.28. Free Literature sent on application to “Bible Truth,” Box 1650. THE UNDENOMINATIONAL MISSION (Inc.). 269 Cashel street east.
